Italy: Capri: The Island

Departed from Napoli, we took a ferry to Capri Island.
Mainly I wanted to visit the famous blue cave, or in Japanese Aonodoukutsu.
I knew the name of Capri from a song I learnt during electone lesson when I was a child.
It was quite a famous island and a very touristic place.
In about 2 hours, we arrived at the island.
We directly went to ferry to the blue cave.
After we returned from the blue cave, we strolled around the port, then climbed up by elevator to the upper city, named Capri town.
There was a church, a plaza and several shops and restaurant up there.
We decided to walk the east end of the island, where there were historical ruins.
On the way, we passed local houses. It was a nice walk since we were able to see the local lives.
There were a lot of small snakes though around the ruins.
Don't like the island too much, very touristic, expensive, and not much to see.
